ASICS has unveiled two new grayscale colorways for their GEL-NYC 2055 silhouette: the “Glacier Grey” and the “Clay Grey”. The Glacier Grey version features a lighter design with grey overlays and mesh set against a crisp white base, while the Clay Grey alternative offers a darker contrast with its upper rendered in clay grey paired with black overlays, laces, and a sockliner. Both shoes are accentuated with subtle metallic silver around the ASICS stripes, showcasing small branding details that mirror each colorway’s respective hues.
The GEL-NYC 2055 is inspired by archival running shoe designs from the early 2000s, specifically the GT-205 and GT-2060 models. This nostalgic homage combines essential elements from these vintage runners into a modern sneaker. To ensure comfort, ASICS has equipped this silhouette with their GEL-CUMULUS® 16 system, which fuses lightweight foams with GEL® technology inserts for superior underfoot support.
This release aligns with ASICS’ ongoing strategy to revitalize classic models while integrating contemporary designs that appeal to today’s sneaker enthusiasts. The GEL-NYC series continues to be a centerpiece in ASICS’ lineup, appealing to both fashion-forward consumers and those seeking comfortable footwear for everyday use.
